The substrate heating method of present embodiment includes:Depressurize process, the first heating process and the second heating process.
In process is depressurized, subtracted to being coated with polyimides formation with the atmosphere of the receiving space of the substrate 10 of liquid Pressure.
As shown in figure 4, in process is depressurized, substrate 10 is configured in conveying roller 8a.In addition, in process is depressurized, heating Portion 5 is located near bottom plate 22.In process is depressurized, heating part 5 and substrate 10 will not be transferred to substrate with the heat of heating part 5 10 degree is remote.In process is depressurized, the power supply of heating part 5 is connected.The temperature of heating part 5 is, for example, 250 DEG C or so.It is another Aspect, in process is depressurized, disconnect the power supply of infrared heater 6.
In process is depressurized, the atmosphere of the receiving space of substrate 10 is set to be depressurized to below 500Pa from atmospheric pressure.For example, Cavity pressure is set gradually to drop to 20Pa from atmospheric pressure in decompression process.
In process is depressurized, make the oxygen concentration of the internal atmosphere of chamber 2 low as much as possible.For example, in process is depressurized, make chamber Vacuum in 2 is below 20Pa.Thereby, it is possible to make the oxygen concentration in chamber 2 be below 100ppm.
After process is depressurized, in the first heating process, substrate 10 is heated with the first temperature.
As shown in figure 5, in the first heating process, heating part 5 is moved to top, substrate 10 is positioned in heating part 5 Upper surface.Thus, by making heating part 5 abut the second surface 10b of substrate 10, the heat of heating part 5 is transferred directly to base Plate 10.In the first heating process, the temperature of heating part 5 for example maintains 250 DEG C.Therefore, substrate temperature can rise to 250 ℃.On the other hand, in the first heating process, the power supply of infrared heater 6 is constantly in off-state.
In addition, in the first heating process, heating part 5 is located at by portion 8h (reference picture 1).For convenience, in Fig. 5 In, the heating part 5 of (position during decompression process) before movement is shown with double dot dash line, is shown in solid (the first heating after movement Position during process) heating part 5.
In the first heating process, in the state of the atmosphere of decompression process is kept, substrate temperature is 150 DEG C to 300 DEG C Scope, substrate 10 is heated to so that be coated on substrate 10 polyimides formation liquid volatilization or imidizate.For example, In the first heating process, the time heated to substrate 10 is below 10min.Specifically, in the first heating process, The time heated to substrate 10 is set to 3min.For example, in the first heating process, make substrate temperature from 25 DEG C slowly Rise to 250 DEG C.
After first heating process, in the second heating process, substrate 10 is entered with the second temperature higher than the first temperature Row heating.In the second heating process, substrate 10 is heated using infrared heater 6, the infrared heater 6 and first adds The heating part 5 used in thermal technology's sequence is separately set.In addition, the second heating process corresponds to the heating described in claim Process.
As shown in fig. 6, in the second heating process, heating part 5 is set to be moved to position during than the first heating process more Top, make substrate 10 close to infrared heater 6.For example, in the second heating process, the temperature of heating part 5 maintains 250 ℃.In addition, in the second heating process, the power supply of infrared heater 6 is connected.For example, infrared heater 6 can be with 450 DEG C substrate 10 is heated.Therefore, substrate temperature can rise to 450 DEG C.In the second heating process, substrate 10 is than the Closer to infrared heater 6 during one heating process, therefore the heat of infrared heater 6 is fully transferred to substrate 10.
In addition, in the second process, heating part 5 is located at conveying roller 8a (shown in Fig. 1 by portion 8h) top and red The lower section of outside line heater 6.For convenience, in figure 6, (position during the first heating process) before moving is shown with double dot dash line Heating part 5, be shown in solid it is mobile after (position during the second heating process) heating part 5.
In the second heating process, in the state of the atmosphere of decompression process is kept, substrate 10 is heated, makes substrate The temperature of temperature from the first heating process is changed into less than 600 DEG C.For example, in the second heating process, make substrate temperature from 250 DEG C Sharp rise to 450 DEG C.In addition, in the second heating process, cavity pressure is set to maintain below 20Pa.
Second heating process includes the refrigerating work procedure for cooling down substrate 10.For example, in refrigerating work procedure, keeping depressurizing work Substrate 10 is cooled down in the state of the atmosphere or hypoxic atmosphere of sequence, substrate temperature is become from the temperature of the second heating process For the temperature that can be conveyed to substrate 10.In refrigerating work procedure, the power supply of infrared heater 6 is disconnected.
By the process Jing Guo the above, volatilization or the acid imide of polyimides formation liquid in substrate 10 are coated Change, and be coated the rearrangement of the strand when imidizate of the polyimides formation liquid of substrate 10, being capable of shape Into polyimide film.
As described above, according to present embodiment, infrared heater 6 include being configured to from outer side covers bending section 31a~ 31h at least one of cap 32,33, so can be avoided, so as to suppress to bend exposing for bending section 31a~31h Portion 31a~31h cools compared with other parts.That is, because by cap 32,33 bending section 31a can be heated from outside ~31h at least a portion, so can suppress bending section 31a~31h produces temperature difference with other parts.Therefore, it is possible to carry The balance of the Temperature Distribution of high IR line heater 6.
In addition, the straight line on second direction V2 in a manner of from the multiple bending section 31a~31h of outer side covers of cap 32,33 Extend shape, thus, it is possible to avoid multiple bending section 31a~31h to expose together, therefore multiple bendings can be suppressed together Portion 31a~31h cools compared with other parts.That is, because by cap 32,33, can be heated together from outside more Individual bending section 31a~31h, so can suppress multiple bending section 31a~31h produces temperature difference with other parts.Therefore, it is possible to Efficiently improve the balance of the Temperature Distribution of infrared heater 6.In addition, infrared heater 6 is additionally included in first direction V1 Upper multiple straight portion 30a~30i that there is long side and configured side by side on the second direction V2 intersected with first direction V1, by This is reciprocally adjacent by multiple straight portion 30a~30i, it is possible to increase mutual heating temp, therefore can be at relatively high temperatures Improve the balance of the Temperature Distribution of infrared heater 6.
However, if the first introduction part 34 is got too close to the second introduction part 35, in the presence of temperature and other portions of the part Tendency of the temperature divided compared to cooling.But according to present embodiment, by by the first introduction part 34 and the second introduction part 35 Both be arranged on the end of cap 32,33 because the first introduction part 34 and the second introduction part 35 are remote to a certain extent, Infrared heater 6 can be suppressed partly to cool.Therefore, it is possible to improve the balance of the Temperature Distribution of infrared heater 6.This Outside, according to present embodiment, by the distance (outside of infrared heater 6 for making the first introduction part 34 and the second introduction part 35 The length on one side of shape) it is 225mm or so, even if the thermal expansion of top plate 21 or thermal contraction of chamber 2, can also allow described swollen Swollen or contraction.
In addition, under vertical view state, the outer shape rectangular shaped of infrared heater 6, the first introduction part 34 configures In the side on one side of infrared heater 6, the second introduction part 35 configures the opposite side on described one side, following so as to play Effect.Because turn into the U-shaped bent at 2 positions in infrared heater 6 from the second introduction part 35 to bending section 31h part Tubulose (i.e. along the shape on three sides in addition to described one side of infrared heater 6), thus with straight tube-like and L word pipes The situation of shape compares, it is possible to increase the flexibility of infrared heater 6.Therefore, even if described one side of infrared heater 6 Thermal expansion or thermal contraction, due to the flexibility of infrared heater 6, it can also allow the expansion or contraction on described one side.
In addition, under vertical view state, both the first introduction part 34 and the second introduction part 35 enter infrared heating In the outer shape of device 6, thus when configuring infrared heater 6, because the first introduction part 34 can be avoided and second led Entering portion 35 turns into obstruction, so the free degree of layout can be improved.For example, multiple infrared heaters 6 are laid on a surface When, 2 adjacent infrared heaters 6 can be avoided to be interfered at the first introduction part 34 and the second introduction part 35, because This can fitly lay multiple infrared heaters 6.
In addition, also including heating part 5, configured across substrate 10 in the side opposite with infrared heater 6, and can Substrate 10 is heated, thus because the heating and the heating of infrared heater 6 of heating part 5 are complemented each other, can more effectively be added Hot substrate 10.
In addition, also include the chamber 2 that can accommodate substrate 10, heating part 5 and infrared heater 6, thus, it is possible in chamber 2 The heating-up temperature of interior management substrate 10, therefore can effectively heat substrate 10.
In addition, substrate 10, heating part 5 and the shared chamber 2 of infrared heater 6 accommodate, thus, it is possible to share Heating of the heating part 5 to substrate 10 and heating of the infrared heater 6 to substrate 10 are carried out in chamber 2 together.That is, Without as heating part 5 and infrared heater 6 are housed inside the situation of mutually different chamber 2, it is necessary to for making base The time that plate 10 conveys between 2 different chambers 2.Therefore, it is possible to more efficiently carry out the heating of substrate 10.In addition, Compared with possessing the situation of 2 different chambers 2, device integral miniaturization can be made.
In addition, polyimides formation is only coated on the first surface 10a of substrate 10 with liquid, heating part 5 is configured in base The first surface 10a of plate 10 opposite side is second surface 10b side, thus plays following effect.Because from heating part 5 Side of the caused heat from the second surface 10b of substrate 10 side towards first surface 10a is transmitted, so can be effectively Heat substrate 10.In addition, during substrate 10 is heated using heating part 5, can efficiently carry out being applied to substrate 10 The volatilization of polyimides formation liquid or imidizate (such as exhaust in film forming).
In addition, heating part 5 and infrared heater 6 can periodically heat substrate 10, thus play following Effect.With heating part 5 and infrared heater 6 be only capable of with stationary temperature heating substrate 10 situation compared with, Neng Gougao Effect ground heating substrate 10 is with the membrance casting condition for the polyimides formation liquid for being adapted to be coated on substrate 10.Therefore, make to be coated on base The polyimides formation of plate 10 is periodically dried with liquid, can be solidified well.
In addition, also including position adjustment portion 7, heating part 5 can be adjusted and infrared heater 6 is relative with substrate 10 Position, thus, compared with not possessing the situation in position adjustment portion 7, it is easily adjusted the heating-up temperature of substrate 10.For example, can In the case where the heating-up temperature of substrate 10 to be made uprises, make heating part 5 and infrared heater 6 close to substrate 10, can In the case of the heating-up temperature step-down of substrate 10 to be made, make heating part 5 and infrared heater 6 away from substrate 10.Therefore, Easily periodically heat substrate 10.
In addition, position adjustment portion 7 includes that the shifting that substrate 10 moves between heating part 5 and infrared heater 6 can be made Dynamic portion 7a, so as to be moved by making substrate 10 between heating part 5 and infrared heater 6, by heating part 5 and infrared ray At least one party in heater 6 is configured in the state of fixed position, can adjust the heating-up temperature of substrate 10.It is therefore not necessary to The device that can move at least one party of heating part 5 and infrared heater 6 is set in addition, therefore can be with simple structure Into the heating-up temperature of adjustment substrate 10.
In addition, between heating part 5 and infrared heater 6, the delivery section 8 for being capable of conveying substrate 10 is provided with, defeated Send formed with that can make that move portion 7a passes through by portion 8h in portion 8, so as to play following effect.Heated making substrate 10 Between portion 5 and infrared heater 6 in the case of movement, because substrate 10 can be made by that by portion 8h, need not make base Plate 10 moves around delivery section 8.It is therefore not necessary to the device for making substrate 10 mobile around delivery section 8, energy are provided in addition Enough with the simple movement for being formed swimmingly progress substrate 10.
In addition, heating part 5 is electric hot plate, thus, it is possible to homogenize the heating-up temperature of substrate 10 in the face of substrate 10, Therefore membrane property can be improved.For example, add in the state of a surface of electric hot plate is abutted with the second surface 10b of substrate 10 Hot substrate 10, the inner evenness of the heating-up temperature thus, it is possible to improve substrate 10.
In addition, also include the temperature detecting part 9 that can detect the temperature of substrate 10, thus, it is possible to grasp substrate 10 in real time Temperature.For example, being heated by the testing result based on temperature detecting part 9 to substrate 10, the temperature of substrate 10 can be suppressed Deviate desired value.
In addition, also including recoverer 11, can reclaim from the molten of the polyimides formation liquid volatilization for being coated on substrate 10 Agent, thus, it is possible to prevent from the solvent of polyimides formation liquid volatilization to factory's side discharge.In addition, connected by recoverer 11 In the case of the pipeline of relief portion 3 (vavuum pump 13), the solvent not good liquor again from the volatilization of polyimides formation liquid can be prevented Change and adverse current in vavuum pump 13.And then the solvent to be volatilized from polyimides formation by the use of liquid can recycle as cleaning fluid.Example Such as, cleaning fluid can be used in the cleaning of spray nozzle front end, the cleaning of liquid for being attached to scraping part etc., and the scraping part is to attached The liquid on nozzle is scraped.
In addition, infrared heater 6 is configured in the first surface 10a of substrate 10 side, thus from infrared heating Heat caused by device 6 is transferred to second surface 10b side, the heating of heating part 5 from the first surface 10a of substrate 10 side Heating with infrared heater 6 is complemented each other, and can more effectively heat substrate 10.
In addition, by the infrared heating of infrared heater 6, substrate 10 can be warming up to the second temperature in a short time Degree.In addition, because infrared heater 6 can be made away from the state of, to be heated with substrate 10 to substrate 10 (so-called Non-contact heating), so the cleaning (so-called cleaning heating) of substrate 10 can be kept.
In addition, because the peak wavelength scope of infrared heater is the scope of more than 1.5 μm and less than 4 μm, and 1.5 More than μm and the wavelength of less than 4 μm of scope is consistent with the absorbing wavelength of glass and water etc., therefore can more effectively add Hot substrate 10 and the polyimides formation liquid for being coated on substrate 10.
